Happy new years, gentlemen. To celebrate I filled up the TDI, 43.8 mpg on this tank. According to Fuelly, I've averaged 44.4 mpg over the 2K or so miles I've driven the car. Not bad, not bad at all. If I was a fancy cameraman I'd have a name for this picture. I'd also have taken a better picture. :lol:

Oh....yours is a 4banger?!?! :shock: I thought it was a 4.3 truck.

If the wires and plugs don't get it....coolant temp sensor or map sensor (three wire plug,top of the manifold).

Yeah it's a 4 cylinder 2wd, I finally jacked it way up in the front and got to the coils from underneath. Still acts the same so I'll replace those sensors tomorrow or Sat.

So I learned something rather interesting this morning. The bw s467 is actually only available with the fmw wheel. While they do make a cast wheel it's only for one specific ag application, and will never be offered as a box Borg charger. Both wheels are the same design though, so they flow the same, but the cast will spool a tad quicker due to the light wheel, and smaller comp housing

Thanks BC for starting a new one! 8) For some reason I wasn't even on here last night, I must have been wiped out and not paying attention. :lol: On New Years eve I went to bed about 10 and woke up at 8 the next morning, so starting this thread never crossed my mind. ;)

Are you guys saying the Ramcharger shouldn't have been lifted? That it has been ruined and it should go back to stock tweety tires? Ya I think not... it is what makes it bad Ass, is that it is sitting on 37s.
